Luxaddi has been exporting exquisite lighting creations — chandeliers, wall sconces, table lamps and lanterns — to countries around the world since 1968. At its brand new 6,000-sqft retail store on MG Road, its journey through time shines bright


For over half a century, Luxaddi has been a name synonymous with elegance and craftsmanship in the world of lighting. Since its establishment in 1968, it has been making exquisite lighting creations — chandeliers, wall sconces, table lamps and lanterns — with each piece more than a mere fixture, but rather an objet d’art with a lasting value. The brand’s first retail store in India, which threw its doors open at Mehrauli on the Mehrauli-Gurgaon Road in New Delhi recently, is spread over 6,000 square feet; it comes after the brand’s five decades of exports to countries around the world.


Inspired by the Roman architecture (accented with a white palette and gracefully curved arches), its core target is the Indian design aficionados. According to the founders of the company, Abhishek and Shweta Singhal, the arches create ‘a sense of separation between different areas without completely closing off the spaces’: it lends the store an open and inviting atmosphere. Its white walls and ceilings are the perfect canvas for a visual installation of the astounding collections of lights.

Luxaddi’s grand crystal chandeliers adorn the banquet halls of luxury hotels, like Rambagh Palace (Jaipur), The Oberoi, The Taj Hotels and The Leela Palace, etc. What’s more, Bollywood celebs and famous sports icons have been have their regular clientele.  At the heart of Luxaddi’s identity lies a unique ability to capture the ethereal within the everyday. By merging the ancient art of glass crafting, dating back to fourth-century Roman glasswork, with cutting-edge design, it has set new trends in the lighting industry. Besides luxury hotels, it also caters to private residences, and villas, collaborating with renowned architects, designers and global hotel chains. 


Located in Moradabad (Uttar Pradesh), its artisans handcraft each lighting piece with meticulous care, perfected through years of experience. Their approach is marked by attention to detail and an unrelenting pursuit of perfection. Its works have also found their way to iconic international landmarks, from the Paris Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas to the White House Museum in Washington, D.C. In Luxaddi’s universe, illumination transcends its functional purpose and becomes “an art form, a means of storytelling, and an expression of timeless beauty”.

Walking through Luxaddi’s new store, the founders say, is akin to embarking on a journey through the evolution of lighting across the ages. Its interiors, designed by Manya from The Upscale Storeys and Ayati, seamlessly amplify the artistry of Luxaddi’s bespoke lighting designs.
